Great room if you like a dynamic atmosphere (which I do). Location is great (by the sports book and Centrifuge, a bar aied at the younger crowd, also near the entrance from NYNY). Good room between the tables, comfy chairs. Could use a bigger restroom closer (rather than the one shared with the sports book), but that is quibbling. Great electronic board for seating players, along with pagers in case the wait is long (which it usually wasn't--longest wait I've had is 15 minutes on weekend). One of the bigger rooms around, so plenty of tables with whatever game you may want.
I've played here on 3 different trips in the past 9 months, always 1-2NL or 2-5NL. Lots of younger internet type players, many of them in various stages of intoxication. Seems like the older crowd dislikes this environment, or younger players squeeze them out ... in any event, its definitely an action environment with lots of preflop raising, multiway pots, and aggressive play post-flop. Typical table only has 2-3 good players, a couple of calling stations (probably "moving up" from LLHE), and the rest are WPT wannabes.
Most dealers were competent and friendly, but not up to the level of Venetian or Bellagio as a whole group.
Generally slow service, no top shelf booze. Buddy ordered scotch neat, was told they couldn't serve "shots"; then asked for it on the rocks, and was told they couldn't get him the mid-range brand he requested.
Well-run, never any complaints with management (although one young woman at the desk on a Saturday morning seemed a bit put out that we actually expected her to put us on a list--but this was the exception).
They ran my card in at the table to clock me in/out, but I have no clue what comps, if any, I may have racked up by now. No HHJ or BBJ that I can recall, but I prefer it that way.
